I have Ubuntu 13.04, I installed it as awn applet, I tried https://bugs.launchpad.net/cardapio/+bug/1184337, unfortunately it doesn't work.

[Nemes Ioan Sorin (nemes-sorin)]

you all can use a patched Cardapio.py file

you have to overwrite your existing /usr/lib/cardapio/Cardapio.py with the file you can download using the link below ...

restart AWN to check

[Jose Manuel Perdomo (joz3)]

recently install the version published in this repository and it works fine

Note for Mint users :

if Cardapio is not working under Mate desktop

then go to /etc/xdg/menus

search for the file mate-applications.menu

duplicate the file under the name applications.menu

reload Cardapio applet

..should work
